Yugi as seen with his ‘other self’, known as Yami Yugi, Pharaoh and Atem (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
One of my close friends and I were thinking about cosplaying as 2 of the Yugioh! characters at Anime Day Atlanta. She hasn’t seen many anime, but she has gotten me to give another look at a few anime I have seen before (like Yugioh!).
I have not seen the whole series and I have only watched the original series that aired on Cartoon Network a long time ago. The dub was terrible (courtesy of 4kids), but I think I kind of liked the way it was. I could always laugh at the strained voices of the characters when they say “Aha! I have found out your plan of attack!” and the long cries of “Nooooo!”
From what I can remember, the series was about a boy named Yugi Moto who had a millennium puzzle with the ancient spirit of a pharaoh inside it and the pharaoh shared a body with Yugi. Yugi goes around playing “duel monsters” to make his way to duel with the creator of the game whose name I believe was Pegasus. Yugi wanted to beat Pegasus because Pegasus sent Yugi’s grandfather to the Shadow Realm.
I am going to start watching it completely from the beginning in the 4kids dub (le GASP!) since I enjoyed the dub before and I might also watch it in Japanese as well.

P.S. By the way I am planning on cosplaying as Yugi/Yami from the original and my friend cosplaying as Yusei from 5Ds.
